The Watch Dogs Legion Delay Allowed Devs to Expand the ‘Play as Anyone’ Feature
Ubisoft originally planned to release Watch Dogs Legion this past spring. In the wake of The Division 2?s and Ghost Recon Breakpoint?s shortcomings, however, the Watch Dogs follow-up received a push. Though Ubisoft Toronto developers were initially devastated by the delay, they brainstormed how it could benefit the project long-term. Apparently, the expansion of the highly-touted ?Play as Anyone? feature counts as the most noteworthy improvement.
Creative Director Clint Hocking told IGN the postponed release date was at first ?devastating.? After all, the project had been nearing completion, with devs working under the assumption that ?we?re going to close this and get it out the door.? But the extra time worked in the Toronto studio?s favor, particularly with regards to the feature that allows players to assume the role of any Watch Dogs Legion NPC.
